The 1998-1999 eruption of Volcán de Colima, Mexico: an application of Maeda's viscoelastic model

A modified version of Maeda's viscoelastic model of mass ejection is applied to the 1998-1999 eruptive period of Volcán de Colima, Mexico. The model fits reasonably well the observed volume and volume rate of the eruption, assuming a magma chamber with a volume 30 km3 and radius of 1.93 km cent...
